Marilyn Manson is reportedly back with his former girlfriend Evan Rachel Wood. After dating for a year, the couple split in 2007, only to reunite briefly earlier this year.

In true shock rock style, Manson told America's Spin magazine "I fantasise every day about smashing her skull in with a sledgehammer", after their last breakup, but told MetalHammer that they are back together, adding: "That's kind of breaking news — you can be the first one to say that."

According to Jam, "The reconciliation comes months after the rocker revealed he dreamed of doing his then-ex great harm and dedicated 'I Want to Kill You Like They Do in the Movies', a violent track on his new album, to her.

During her split from Manson, the actress was romantically linked to actors Shane West and Alexander Skarsgard.
